Sunday Open Thread: Gas Edition

The Liberal MSM will not cover this story, because the Liberal MSM does not care about the United States of America…… Liberals never have.

Liberals view America as the problem…. Americans view Liberals as the problem.

Liberals will lose.

Americans Win when Liberals Lose.

Well, our fearless leader did say energy prices would necessarily skyrocket. Maybe he's actually keeping a promise for once?

FWIW ODTAA

Don't forget an anti-colonial.

Right after the Blowout on the BP rig, a survivor gave an account of what happened and the cause of the blowout on 60 Minutes, he had seen the whole thing because he was at the bottom of the rig and worked his way up and dove into the water and was rescued by some fishermen, the story he related on 60 Minutes was not the one Congress heard, (I watched both) from what he related on 60 Minutes I expected to see the Executives of BP go to jail for at least Manslaughter. To this day I have yet seen anything else said about the events that the survivor explained.

Let me guess… it has something to do with his father, having lived in Kenya and British Colonialism.

They want gas to go up so they can make their enviro buddies rich…..follow the money always…Obummer told the guy time for a trade in..should have told him..I ain;t got no job no money..time to trade his ass in

It is one thing to aspire to "going green".
But NOT at the expense of the Red, White, and Blue.

I'll be dropping off my recyclables today but not because someone told me to. I wonder how many of the Greenies actually practice what they preach. Having seen the aftermath of the Jon Stewart Rally in D.C. (which was probably full of environuts) I'd wager it's not too many.

I loathe and detest the O administration and his Marxist Mao-Loving Socialist CZARS.

they cant cover it because the years demonizing boosh and cash cow from high oil prices, whos to blame now?
at some point the American people, I believe, just cannot be so willfully ignorant to accept these flimsy exuses and maybe, just maybe, the leftist are catching on?

I say let the price and the pain increase. Just in time for 2012. The President is on record that he would like to see expensive gas…I hope the RNC got that on tape(but I doubt it they're so damn dumb). If gas is not below $2.80 for a gallon of premium by election day, you can put a fork in Obama. There are two immutable truths. 1) The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world and 2) If mama's not happy, no one is happy. Military commanders have learned this lesson all too well as high ops tempos over a prolonged period meant hubby was away from the family far too long for mama's liking. When re-enlistment time comes up, hubby does not re-enlist and when re-enlistment rates go in the tank, senior commanding officers don't make promotion (kiss that first or next star goodbye). If you think you're gonna tell a mom with three+ crumb crunchers, that she is going to pay more for the gas to run her family van or SUV to get her brood to dance lessons, soccer practice etc and that she's not gonna be able to buy her kids the clothes and the food she thinks they deserve because she's gotta use that money for gas, fugghettaboutit. Ya don't mess with mama, her nest, or those she loves who inhabit that nest. Those who do do so at their own peril.

Idea for a pulitzer prize for a reporter. Find out how many barrells of oil were being produced lets say in March 2010 from the Gulf of Mexico. Compare that with productio right now. Ask one of those so call experts to comment how much lower the price of gasoline will be if we had the same production.

Bonus points for that pulitzer. Check out the number of jobs and their income which is gone.

Super bonus points. Ask Obama why he cares about the environment movement more than he cares about the average person.

Silly question. Doesn't a member of Congress right now besides a salary gets a reimbursement for their cars and their gasoline expenses. Maybe if we take away the gasoline reimbursement they might care a bit more about getting a good solution to the price of gasoline.

I think it needs to be about ten bucks a gallon the day before the election.

Then get that "Rent is too damned high" guy, to do a commercial.

Anyone notice the rising price of gas is inversly proportional to the Mullah's poll numbers?

If a reporter wants a pulitzer prize, he'd better not report any truth that reflects badly on the left.

But pulitzer prizes are suppose to go to the best stories on things! It might not be popular among reporters and the left, but if will be the best story.

You forget that once everyone drives these "green" cares, the government plans on taxing how much we drive! There's already a bill for that.

By the summer you'll be paying over $5.00 a gallon.

Why hasn't Obama been impeached for collaborating with Halliburton to raise our gas prices? Oh that's right. He's not Bush.

My wife and I planned a road trip for the two weeks before Memorial Day. I am wondering if I should cancel and just eat the money I've spent on event tickets. I might be money ahead when compared to the extra cost of fuel. We won't be planning anymore trips this year. Here comes the double dip recession.

Probably takes 3-4 years to get the oil out of the ground because it takes a minimum of two to plow through the regulatory swamp.

Heard something about the "rent is too damned high" guy re-registering as a Republican. That either says something about him, or the Republican party. Not sure which. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/12/23/jimmy-mc...

Today, here in America, Barack Obama and his socialist regime, bring you the latest in his "Misery Index":

$5.00 per gallon while the Big "O" (a$$-hole) sits on 276 drilling request permits either off shore or on U.S. land. This is just more proof Obama doen NOT care about the American economy, the middle class who drive this machine, but wants to break the capitalist system down inorder to usher in full blown socialism.

Funny graphic! The individual who picks the graphics for these articles deserves a raise.The pics of Obama in his various Il Duce / mob boss poses are usually spot on with the accompanying article.

You definitely be on to something, Doc. Gas was 55 cents a gallon (the equivalent of $2) when al-Qahdduh took office in 1977. By the time Reagan booted the loser four years later, the same gallon was up to $1.50 ($3.70 today). Combine with similar food-price inflation and simmer over chronically high un- and under-employment numbers for a year and a half. Serve piping hot plates piled high with FAIL on Nov. 6, 2012. Welcome back, Carter!

You can bet there is a lot of gas coming out of the whitehouse from all the BS and Moochelle with her love for KFC and tacobell

They sure come up with trash complaints like this :

A Southern California Republican Party official was under fire Saturday after allegations she sent an email that included an altered photo depicting President Barack Obama as an ape.

An e-mail reportedly sent by party central committee member Marilyn Davenport shows an image, posed like a family portrait, of chimpanzee parents and child, with Obama's face artificially superimposed on the child. Text beneath the photo reads, "Now you know why no birth certificate."

Davenport, when reached by The Associated Press, said she would provide a written statement with her response, but several hours later she had not issued one.

The alternative newspaper OC Weekly first reported the story, and was told by Davenport that the e-mail was "just an Internet joke." She also asked the Weekly, "You're not going to make a big deal about this are you?"

Republican Party of Orange County Chairman Scott Baugh told The Associated Press on Saturday that he wants an ethics investigation into the incident.

"It's just highly inappropriate, it's a despicable message, it drips with racism and I think she should step down from the committee," said Baugh.

Baugh said it could be several days before it's known whether the ethics committee will agree to investigate Davenport.

At the very least, Baugh said, Davenport should be apologizing for what she's done rather than attacking whoever leaked the email to media, referring to an email Davenport sent after the story broke calling on "the coward" who leaked the email to come forward.

Davenport, a tea party activist, represents the 72nd Assembly District in Orange County on the central committee.

She represents Brea, Placentia, Fullerton and portions of other Orange County cities to the county committee tasked with fundraising, campaigning and debating policy for the Republican Party.

Good job obama…..loser

2012 GTFO !!!!!!!!!!!

This too will pass… Painfully, but apparently pain is the only thing that will slap sense into the approximately 34%-35% of registered U.S. voters who gave the most powerful executive office in the world to the most liberal, inexperienced, unqualified Marxists in the U.S. Senate.

Ahyup, horses are a grand means of transportation. I'm thinking of buying a four-seater buggy so I can haul the wife and the neighbors out to a restaurant or to the drive-in.

Buy a Chevy Volt or some other minuscule soapbox derby vehicle with the optional rear window hand warmer for pushing in the winter? Nope, not even to avoid the fires of hades!

Two years at minimum… Then the Ecoxtremists -sponsored litigation that follows slows the actual production down by an additional number of years while the legalese maneuvers further tie the process up in the courts.

Technically, I have a "green" car. (Mainly because it makes little sense for me to have anything else. Don't drive much.) However, even with my rather high gas mileage the price of a fill-up is definitely hurting. President Pompous seems to only lecture us poor peasants on our "bad" habits when he doesn't have to worry about paying for filling up Air Force One or any of those myriad limos.

For every ship full of japan junk imported here uses more oil then all Americans use in their car for a year.
Do the math as to how many ships a year, add that they are the 3rd largest user of oil in the world and are only a fricking island.
That is with 50 nuke plants making electric power where they now are killing all life in the oceans and selling you products with nuke waste on it and you can see where all the oil goes

Worse just this weekend, the commies who care less that the trillions of USA dollars in profit japan has ripped off and countless American jobs lost to japan the ubama king now says you should pay to rebuild a country island that was the cause of 60,000,000 murders of WW-II

The U.S. secretary of state and the Japanese foreign minister on Sunday announced plans for a joint reconstruction venture as the Asian nation grapples with a nuclear crisis following a devastating earthquake and deadly tsunami.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said aid to Japan honors Japan's legacy of assisting other countries in crisis.

"Our two governments … have agreed to create a public-private partnership for reconstruction," Clinton said. "We wish to enhance cooperation between Japan and American businesses, between civil society groups, public officials, under the guidance of the government of Japan, with its planning."

Appearing with Clinton and Japanese Foreign Minister Takeaki Matsumoto was Tom Donohue, the president of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and Deputy Secretary of State Tom Nides.

"Their presence here is a reflection of the American business community's full faith in Japan's economic recovery," Clinton said.
Details on the "public-private venture" are still being worked out

The United States is acting out of longtime friendship in helping Tokyo confront a "multidimensional crisis," Clinton said. ( mean screw Americans)

The Left has one idea … to restrict the movement of the American people. That way, you don't need checkpoints.

Great blog post.Really looking forward to read more.cartier glasses
